How to play number match
- Tap one number, then tap another. If they pair, both clear.
- A pair is two digits that are equal (4 and 4) or that add up to ten (4 and 6).
- They also have to be neighbours along one line: side by side, stacked in the same column, on a diagonal, or wrapped from the end of one row to the start of the next.
- Cleared cells are see-through. As the board empties, numbers that started far apart become neighbours.
- A row that empties completely is removed, which pulls the rest of the board closer together.
- Out of pairs? Add rows copies every surviving number to the bottom. You get five for the whole game.
- Clear the entire board to win. The daily board is identical for every player and resets at 00:00 UTC.
Three habits that clear more boards
- Clear from the top down. Emptying an entire top row removes it from the board and shortens every line below it.
- Hoard your add-rows. Each one roughly doubles what is left on the board. Spending one early to dodge a bit of scanning is how a winnable board turns into a stranded one.
- Check the wrap before you panic. The last digit of a row and the first of the next are neighbours — it is the pair people miss most.
